“You have to see it on the big screen!” It’s an old trope, but lusciously lit, exquisitely framed, and ravishingly photographed art films deserve to be seen as expansively as possible. In celebration of the 60th anniversary of the Chicago International Film Festival, the Music Box Theatre presents six big-screen cinematic masterpieces from the Festival's vaults that have to be seen BIG.
Save the date: 60th Chicago International Film Festival, October 16-27, 2024. For more information: www.chicagofilmfestival.com
